It's been my experience being a suburban woman with ptsd that if I disclose indiscriminately Im 'likely to get tested. People really dislike people who announce their ptsd, for all kinds of reasons. I don't do it real world like I do here. Even hospital employees in a really affluent liberal town can be shtis about it. Security guards and police can feel me across the room and know.

You learn to whom to disclose. You learn when to keep your mouth shut.

Mostly you learn to manage your physiology so you aren't so jumpy.
